About Lymphatic Enzyme Facial

Lymphatic Enzyme therapy improves lymphatic drainage, whilst eliminating toxins and impurities from the skin. This is achieved through transfer messenger enzymes encouraging circulation and oxygenation to replenish the skin and is known to result in a short-term phenomenon called a “Plasmatic Effect.”

How does Lymphatic Enzyme work

When our blood circulates around our body it supplies nutrients (such as amino acids), water and oxygen to our cells and tissues. However, during the capillary fluid exchange (where amino acids, water and oxygen cross the capillary wall), fluids do not travel very far into the surrounding tissue, and even less when there are roadblocks.
Which is why there needs to be a ‘clear road’, free from debris, so that these nutrients can get to their target. Therefore, lymphatic drainage (as well as circulation) is important to the health of your skin and why the circulatory system plays a vital role in a holistic approach to skin health.

Lymphatic Therapy treatment works with the skin to assist with activating these processes, creating a clean environment for cells to flourish in, feeding the cells fresh oxygenated and nutrient rich blood, AND carrying away deoxygenated blood.
